Thanks to its well-designed steel cutting blade, technological design and safety starting key, the GD40LM46SPK4 lawn mower features can meet the needs of every Operator who wants to take care of the lawn conveniently and safely.

The quick release system allows folding the handlebar for saving space during storage.

The large 55 L grass collector allows reducing the time required for emptying it during mowing operations.

The product is also equipped with mulching and side discharge plugs.

Thanks to the 7 different cutting height positions it is possible to precisely adjust the cutting heigth according to your needs.

Main specifications of the standard-supplied universal Greenworks 40 V battery:

Voltage: 40 V
Amperage: 4Ah

Rechargeable thanks to the battery charger supplied.

This machine is a 4 in 1 lawn mower equipped with mulching, side, rear and grass collection systems.

GRASS COLLECTION SYSTEM

Standard grass collection system: Grass collector capacity: 55 L.

REAR DISCHARGE SYSTEM

this system allows mowing without using the grass collector, discharging the grass clippings directly from the back of the lawn mower.

SIDE DISCHARGE SYSTEM

Leaving the mulching plug entered, in order not to occlude the rear discharge of the grass, simply lift the black cover on the housing side and enter the side deflector supplied with a simple gesture.

MULCHING CUTTING SYSTEM

To convert the machine for the mulching cut, simply remove the grass collector and enter the mulching plug supplied, which automatically activate the mulching cutting system.

MAIN SPECIFICATIONS OF THE MULCHING CUTTING SYSTEM: The mulching cutting system allows finely crushing grass clippings and dropping them on the ground instead of collecting them into the grass collector. The resulting grass particles are very small and decompose quickly, creating a small amount of natural fertilisation and returning water and mineral elements to the soil.

The machine is equipped with:

The lawn mower is equipped with a speed variator.

After use, the lawn mower can be easily stored, thanks to its foldable handlebar and quick release devices.

The compartment of the Greenworks 40 V batteries, supplied with the machine, is placed in the centre of the front part of the lawn mower.

Simply lift the cover and remove the batteries to recharge them.

The Greenworks 40 V lithium-ion battery can be recharged at any time (just like the batteries of modern smartphones, no memory effect) so they are always ready to use. It lasts approx. 30 times longer than a standard battery. The battery is equipped with a convenient charging indicator and an activation button to prevent unwanted turning on of the machine.

This battery can be shared with all the Greenworks 40 V products.

Battery-powered electric motor advantages:

• This lawn mower is more reliable than a petrol one, thanks to its electric motor. No spark plug, filters, oil dipstick, carburettors, etc ... or components which can cause problems.
• Much lighter
• Zero maintenance
• Lower consumption and drastically reduced operating costs compared to petrol engine models (great cutting results with minimal power required). Moreover, the Operator won’t have to refuel (the fuel should always be fresh).
• Zero vibrations thanks to the electric motor. Instead, almost all engine-powered machines, which are not equipped with an anti-vibration system on steel springs, have a very high degree of vibrations, making the work quite unpleasant.
• Zero smoke emission, zero impact on the environment and, above all, on the Operator’s health.
• Much quieter and therefore pleasant to use than a petrol lawn mower.

LITHIUM-ION BATTERY AND BATTERY CHARGER INCLUDED

Battery equipped with quick release: the battery can be easily removed from the machine by simply pressing the quick release button.

Voltage: 40 V
Amperage: 4Ah

The convenient battery can be recharged at any time, no memory effect (it does not tend to run out after many charge cycles), always great power.

Convenient battery charger included (it connects to the home mains as the charger of a mobile phone).

Charging Time:

The battery is plugged to the battery charger through the quick release, in the same way as it is connected to the lawn mower.

It is also possible to purchase additional batteries for ensuring a long running time.

However, the most surprising aspect is that the battery and battery charger are perfectly adaptable and usable with the full range of Greenworks 40 V series.

Therefore, you will just need to have a single battery and a battery charger in order to operate the full range of equipment offered by this outstanding company.

LONGER LIFE: up to 3 times higher than the nickel–cadmium batteries, reducing the need to recharge during long periods of use.
Ideal for medium-large gardens.

FULL CHARGE FOR THE ENTIRE BATTERY LIFE: the charge of the lithium-ion batteries does not fade. Unlike nickel-cadmium batteries, which power gradually decreases, lithium-ion batteries’ cells maintain constant power throughout the entire cycle. The same charge for the entire cycle without reducing the motor speed. The battery is running at full power until its complete exhaustion.

LONGER CHARGE LIFE: Lithium-Ion batteries last 3-4 times longer than traditional Nickel-Cadmium batteries and their power storage lasts longer so they lose less power. Lithium-ion batteries can be recharged up to 2000 times!

LIGHTWEIGHT: Lithium-ion batteries have the best power-to-weight ratio. They weigh 1/3 of nickel-cadmium ones.

ENVIRONMENTALLY-FRIENDLY: Lithium battery-powered tools are recyclable and are produced without heavy metals.

NO MEMORY EFFECT: Lithium-ion batteries can be recharged at any time without negative memory effect. Indeed, they don't fail to provide maximum power even after hundreds of charge cycles.
Few minutes of charge are enough to complete the work.

LOW DISCHARGE RATE: Low run down rate (up to 5 times lower than nickel-cadmium batteries) so your lawn mower will be ready to use even after months of storage.

BATTERY CHARGER: lithium-ion batteries chargers reduce energy consumption by an average of 35%. Heavy-duty long-lasting air filter

The actual mowing area may be significantly lower than the value declared by the manufacturer, which is calculated under standard operating conditions with dry grass of medium to low height. When cutting tall or wild grass, not maintained in an English lawn style, as well as grass that is damp or particularly dense, the workload increases and the motor requires higher energy consumption, resulting in a reduction of the effective battery autonomy.

The value declared by the manufacturer is instead fully reliable under favorable mowing conditions, namely on a regularly maintained lawn with dry grass that is not excessively tall and not wild, corresponding to the standard conditions used in laboratory testing.

When mowing is carried out regularly, cutting a limited and well-maintained layer of grass, preferably in the afternoon when the lawn is almost free of moisture, operating performance may be in line with the declared figures and, in some cases, even higher than stated by the manufacturer.

The cutting mode also affects energy consumption: grass collection and mulching require greater blade effort compared to rear discharge. The condition of the blade also plays a role, as a dull edge increases friction and reduces the number of square meters that can be effectively mowed on a single charge.

Other factors depend on ground conditions. Slopes and uneven terrain require higher torque, and activation of the drive system (if present) leads to continuous energy absorption, significantly reducing effective working time. Non-ideal temperatures, battery age, and repeated restarts or tight maneuvers further reduce the available autonomy.

Under non-optimal operating conditions, the difference between the declared mowing area and the actual workable surface therefore originates from the increased load placed on the motor, blade, and drive system.

The following shows the achievable mowing areas based on the battery capacity used:

BATTERY AND CHARGER ARE INCLUDED.

The lawn mower is designed and intended exclusively for cutting grass in garden areas (and not on other types of terrain). The surface must be level, free from irregularities, stones, or other solid objects, and covered with maintained lawn grass (therefore, not uncultivated or spontaneous vegetation). Grass should be cut regularly and must not be allowed to grow beyond 25–30 cm, as most lawn mowers are no longer capable of cutting at this height. Slopes exceeding 15% (equivalent to 9°) must be avoided, except when using 4x4 models.

For heavier-duty tasks involving spontaneous vegetation, grass taller than the above-mentioned limits, or rougher surfaces than a garden, please consider alternative product categories such as Petrol Flail Mowers or Brush Cutters.

Furthermore, grass must only be cut when both the lawn and the underlying soil are completely dry. Mowing should be carried out exclusively in dry weather, well away from periods of rain or irrigation, and preferably in the afternoon, when the grass is no longer affected by morning humidity. Wet grass tends to bend under the blades, which reduces cutting efficiency, increases the risk of clogging inside the deck, and subjects the engine to excessive strain.
